A three day (March 28-30) conference took place in the Berdzor
district centre of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Kashatagh region,
which was devoted to the development of the region. "This conference,
which is devoted to the development of the Kashatagh region, is the
first sui generis, and I hope that it will become a basis for holding
similar events in the future.
It will promote effective solution to the problems existing in the
region, as well as realization of programs aimed at its further
development", NKR President Bako Sahakian said in his speech made at
the opening of the conference. Meanwhile, he noted that the "Kashatagh
region is a unit of strategic significance for the Armenian nation".
"It is no coincidence that within nearly 70 years our enemy turned
this territory into a wedge between Armenia and Artsakh. The region's
role has deeply changed since May of 1992, and the narrow section
liberated in that period became a real "lifeline" for the people
of Artsakh. Realizing both political and economic significance
of Kashatagh and all the responsibility for its future we have to
undertake the region's development, create stable and competitive
economy, increase the level of the people's welfare, and improve the
people's living conditions. It is today's imperative required by the
interests of our national security", Bako Sahakian said. The head
of the Karabakhi state also mentioned that "the existence of strong,
developed and populated Kashatagh will create stable background for
reinforcement of positions not only in the negotiation process on
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement, but also on the front line
making it more protected and secure". "This year and in the following
years the amount of means assigned for the region's development will
considerably increase. The budget of the Kashatagh region in 2008
is 3,7 billion drams, which exceeds the previous year's index by 40%
per cent. 1 billion drams is provided for capital construction, 400
million drams is provided for the sphere of capital investment. These
tendencies of proportional development will be maintained in the future
as well", Bako Sahakian noted. Meanwhile, the president informed
that together with the economic development of the region reforms,
aimed at improvement of the population's social condition, were
also provided. Representatives of 40 organizations of the Armenian
Diaspora and independent entrepreneurs and benefactors participated in
the work of the conference in Berdzor. Various programs which are to
stimulate the complex development of the region, secure stable economic
growth, solve education and health care problems, improve demographic
situation etc. were presented during the conference. The attendees
visited the region's villages and familiarized themselves with the
situation in site.
